you in this manner because you deserve it.
Not, however, on account of any misdemean-
or you have perpetrated against us or because
you have not allowed US full liberty Of ali
we survey, but because you as local secretary
Of the Kansas Pharmaceutical Association,
as mayor of the city of Wichita, as a Pea
non druggist Of this county and as gentle
man whose personal labors have aided us 80
much, not only towards our enjoyment, but
because you have so successfully succeeded
in making every member Of this associa
ton feel at home. By your earnest
ness in the success Of this convention
you have so beautifully carried out that
weaving principle, faith, which binds man
to man in q social as well as in business
way. 1t is not upon solid rock our govern
ment stands or upon a sure investment that
we live, prosper and accumulate wealth. Nor
do careful merchants as rule buy certain
manufacturers goods because Of their actual
knowledge of their purity, but they buy
them and push them because of their faith
and confidence in the goods; and so you have
earnestly and zealously worked to make this
convention success because Of your faith
and confidence in the Kansas Pharmacueti-
cal Association.
We trust you will receive this cane with
the compliments of the exhibitors and that
when yau lean upon it your weight will al
ways be ightened, and that it will help you
to successfully journey on to many other
pleasant returns.
